Purpose The purpose of this study is to evaluate the knowledge of operating room nurses (ORNs) on preventive practices in terms of protection against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Design This research is a descriptive study. Methods 279 ORNs from 17 provinces of Turkey included in this research. The data were collected online, using Google Form. ORNs were communicated via WhatsApp or via other social media platforms and were asked to answer the questionnaire. In the questionnaire, there were 12 questions on descriptive characteristics and 20 statements regarding the knowledge of ORNs on preventive practices for protection against COVID-19. Findings The rate of \'yes\' responses provided by ORNs to statements on preventive practices for protection against COVID-19 was found between 10% and 98.6% while the rate of \'no\' responses was found between 0% and 25.8%. The rate of those stating that they did not have an opinion on statements was found between 1.8% and 48.4%. Conclusion The level of knowledge of ORNs on protective measures against COVID-19 is quite high. However, there are important issues to consider such as the fact that the majority of the ORs do not employ an algorithm or a guideline for protective practices and that almost half of ORNs has not received a training on protection against COVID-19.
